1953 Topps Vern Bickford. This was another ebay find, like the previous one last week. Good ole Vern set me back 25 cents. And $4 S+H. That, my friends, will be a subject for an upcoming rant. Stay tuned.
Back to Vern. He pitched a no-no in 1950 against the Dodgers. This card has no creases, and three sharp corners... with the only problems in the bottom left. Yes. The black. It's always the black.
But it's still beautiful to me. One more closer to my team set....
P.S. What is it about his eyes???? Stare at his eyes for a moment. The one just bores right through you.... I can't stop looking..... must..... stop....
